Do You Do Any Of These Things?

Over the course of your gaming expiriences have you ever done any of the following?

1. You are playing a game like Rainbow 6 Multiplayer or CS and an enemy throws a flashbang at your feet. You instinctively slam your eyes shut in real life and then frantically look around hoping no one else noticed your moron mistake.

2. While trying to peak/lean around a corner to see any enemies you find yourself unconcieously leaning yourself in the same direction even though it doesnt help you in the least bit.

3. While playing a game, you character is suddenly chased by Nemisis/super zombie/licker/big mafia dude/pack of small aliens/onos etc. You frantically make your character run away without lookcing back but you still get that tingle sensation in your spine that says. "OMG GO FASTER OMG AHH CANT LET THEM GET ME AHH" And you feel as if someone is actualy chasing you in reality.

4.You find yourself repeatidly chatting like this in online chat programs such as AIM, or ICQ
ywhats up?
yIm good
ythat was really boring

5. When you type/write a paper for school you must keep going back to correct yourselves b/c you wrote something like this.
My e55ay wilbe on teh affects 0f computer games and h0w teh affect p30ple.

6. Instead of laughing like a normal person you simply say "lol"

7. You answer back with things like "Negative, or Roger That"

8.When you see a big fat guy, in your mind you think, "Haha Onos! Or I saw the fatteh!"

9. You meet another FPS gamer and you immediatly start talking about all of your online gaming weapon choice stratedgies for more efficent killing. Suddenly you both look around and everyone else in the area is staring at you like you are going to be the next school shooter b/c they have no idea what you are talking about.

10. I cant think of number 10.

    I do number 9 on a regular basis. The other thing I do probably fits under #3: I <i>very</i> frequently hold by breath during a high-tension moment in game, sighing releif when I've escaped or gotten fragged.

    For NS, happens most often when I'm lerking or skulk-leaping in and out of a major combat zone. I'll see/hear a grenade launcher and I find myself instinctively holding my breath while I try to fly my way the heck out of there.

    1. I think I've already looked away from the screen (not to miss the white, just the flash) but nobody was watching.
    2. I've done that, just like leaning the controler to "turn faster"
    3. I've already jumped and looked behind me when I heard a skulk chomping.
    4. Yes. Like 84 I don't have a qwerty so I replace q's with a's and vice verca, z-w etc...
    5. Nope
    6. Lol in fact I did
    7. No
    8. No. Only when looking at pigs or elephant am I transported to the NS world.
    9. No we don't talk a lot about strats in here. Except perhaps from time to time about AK's and m4s but I stopped CS
    10. -> Do you sometimes type quit in your console in frustration only to reconnect a second later?

    1.) Yep, numerous times.
    2.) Yeh, also, when I'm playing BattleField 1942, when I hop into a plane, when I pull up, I lean all the way back in my chair.
    3.) Yes, one time, I pushed my chair out and kept jumping like mad while holding the key and going, "AhhhHhhhhHHHH!!!"
    4.) Only 2 times. You'll never catch me doing that again.
    5.) Neh. I never speak leet.
    6.) I went through a phase where I kept saying "El oh el" over and over when something was funny. I never laughed. I just said "EL OH EL!!! EL OH!! EL!!!", which was pretty funny at one point, and now it sort of died away.
    7.) Nope.
    8.) One time, yes.
    9.) Yeah. That was a funny moment.
    10.) I can <i>never</i> think of number 10! (;

    I've found myself looking at CCTV camera's and thinking
    "Hmmm, I should probably shoot that"
    Every now and then I'll see someone standing with their
    back to me and think "I should stick my gun to his
    head and question him for secret Russian codes or maybe just
    snap his neck."

    I personally blame SplinterCell and Metal Gear
